Servicing CPUs The Netra Server X5-2 is available in either a single-processor configuration or a dual- processor configuration. The single-processor configuration cannot be upgraded to a dual-processor configuration. The procedures in this chapter focus on the dual-processor configuration. Replacing a single processor is the same in both configurations. Use these procedures to service the CPUs.
Check to see if any System Service Required LEDs are lit or flashing. “Interpreting Diagnostic LEDs” on page In Oracle ILOM, check the health of the CPUs. Replace x with 0 or 1 in the dual-processor configuration. The CPU is always CPU_0 in the single-processor configuration.
Use the Oracle ILOM faultmgmt shell to identify the faulty component. “Display Faults (faultmgmt Shell)” on page Run UEFI CPU diagnostics. Refer to the Oracle x86 Servers Diagnostics, Applications, and Utilities Guide for Servers with Oracle ILOM 3.1 and Oracle ILOM 3.2.x at http://www.oracle.com/goto/x86AdminDiag/ for information.
